Podcasts about weird stuff

We're talking about the Earth, Wind, & Fire documentary, and the wild story of this funky 70s band. We discuss the insane hypocrisy of Tyra Banks suing Netflix over the America's Next Top Model documentary in which she participated. Turns out, it's not fun to be at the mercy of editors trying to tell a particular story. A woman got a tattoo of her child's name, but there was a typo, and her solution is WILD. We celebrate the pianist who got the chance of a lifetime to perform when the pro keyboardist fell ill at a concert. We debate the question of custody of an embryo in the event of a divorce. Susie talks about a mummy whose gut was growing yeast, and we are not happy with what the scientists decided to do with it. We'll give you one dumb guess.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Download HILY Dating App from the App Store or Google Play, or visit https://hily.comGo to https://thrivecausemetics.com/BRAINCANDY for an exclusive offer of 20% off your first order.Visit https://www.carawayhome.com/braincandypod to take an additional 10% off using code BRAINCANDYPOD on your next purchase.TDM-RESERVATION: 1.

Sarah is hyped about her new look. We're calling it athletic chic. We learn about a religious festival where people compete to make the most noise, and in so doing, priceless art pieces were destroyed. We find out the details of the world's most expensive home, and Susie wishes the owner a lifetime of pain and agony. Susie's sister is fact checking Sarah about how to deal with a bear sighting, and we just hope we're never in that position because there's some confusion. A gym is being sued because the "grunting" of the members is so loud the neighbors can't get a moment's rest. We lament the death of cursive handwriting and also (the atrocious) spelling of humans. We are mad about horse-drawn carriages. Why do they still exist? But good news--cereal boxes are bringing back toys. Finally! Plus, we hear how scientists discovered that fog is ALIVE. What.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Download HILY Dating App from the App Store or Google Play, or visit https://hily.comGet 60% off your first order, plus free shipping and free treats for life, when you head to https://www.smalls.com/braincandyVisit https://www.carawayhome.com/braincnadypod to take an additional 10% off using code BRAINCANDYPOD on your next purchase.TDM-RESERVATION: 1.

Sarah reveals a statistic about women in movies, and it's not good news.

We learn how they found out that pigeons were hanging out with humans 1,000 years before we used to think. We find out why the United States was fighting with other countries over bird poop. Sarah comments on Rosie O'Donnell's facelift, and explains why she thinks Rosie's on to something. Susie talks about her hatred of Brad Pitt and his dumb hair.

Susie talks about Red Panda, the half-time phenom, who rides a 7ft tall unicycle whilst throwing plates with her feet onto her head. It's a whole thing. We find out about an astronaut who almost drowned on a "routine" spacewalk, which has Sarah reeling. We find out how Sarah almost choked to death, but more importantly, Susie found out she does NOT know the international sign for choking. We hear how WiFi can identify people in the room, and it's creepy af. Susie's sister questions Sarah's advice about saying, "Hey, bear!" to scare off bears. We learn why American horses are obese. And Sarah cries about Temple Grandin.

Sarah is back from Vegas where she attended the Enhanced Games, which allow competitors to use any FDA substance they want. We celebrate that, but we mourn the loss of buffets. Bring back the buffet! Susie watched a documentary about houses featured in movies and TV shows and the people who live in them. We hear why some owners hate it and others embrace their famous residences. We learned about the man who founded the E.L.F. makeup brand, who has received a higher calling and joined the priesthood! Susie watched the Hollywood Demons episode about Saved By the Bell, and we discuss the perils of childhood stardom and the tragedy of Screech's real life. Plus, we reminisce about the hilarious "star" experience we got when we were invited to the worst gifting suite of all time, but it keeps us humble.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Download HILY Dating App from the App Store or Google Play, or visit https://hily.go.link/4iJ1lGet 15% off OneSkin with the code BRAINCANDY at https://www.oneskin.co/BRAINCANDY #oneskinpod For 50% off your order, head to https://www.dailylook.com and use code BRAINCANDYGet 40% off your first order PLUS get a free item in every box for life when you go to https://www.hungryroot.com/braincandy and use code braincandyTDM-RESERVATION: 1.

Susie is mad about birds and chipmunks and Sarah is mad about noise pollution, but it's clear they're both old ladies. Susie also had an e-bike accident, and it's a fun reminder to drive sober. Also, if you love data, get a keychain breathalyzer. Sarah talks about a mosaic of a bull at an Italian mall that needed some sprucing up, but apparently the artist who restored it sucked, well, balls. We also learn about other art Sarah is mad at including the Art Basel Comedian piece where a banana is taped to a wall, and the reason it's in the news again. Plus, we hear about a man who won the lottery because his wife was being annoying, and now we think we should win the lottery with our listeners.00:00 - Birds, Squirrels, and Noise Pollution: Our Old Lady Grievances07:07 - Susie's E-Bike Accident: Don't Drink and Drive21:11 - Testing the Keychain Breathalyzer: Data on Drinking and Driving25:53 - The Castrated Bull Mosaic: A Disastrous Art Restoration35:33 - The $6 Million Banana and the Problem with Tech Bros in Art49:59 - Annoying Wife Leads to a $315 Million Lottery Win01:02:57 - Nicotine Addiction: Some People Can't Get AddictedBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:For up to 65% off your order, head to https://veracityhealth.co and use code BRAINCANDYSave 20% Off Honeylove by going to https://www.honeylove.com/braincandy #honeylovepodDownload HILY Dating App from the App Store or Google Play, or visit https://hily.go.link/4iJ1lTDM-RESERVATION: 1.

VYS0062 | Rabbit Trap: Sounds Like a Spell - Vayse to Face with Bryn Chainey - Show Notes In 2025 an independent film was released that blew the minds of experiencers, occult communities and connoisseur's of Weird Stuff alike - that film was Rabbit Trap, a darkly melancholic and hauntingly beautiful meditation on love, trauma and the power of the natural world, both discovered and undiscovered, to brutalise and heal in even measure, with equal ferocity and sometimes even at the same time. The man who write and directed Rabbit Trap was Bryn Chainey and in this episode he talks to Vayse. Bryn guides Hine and Buckley on a journey through the film making process, what inspired him to make this gorgeous and deeply weird film, how he made it look so good, how he made it sound so good, how he got such incredible performances from the the three lead actors and what it means to make a film with heart. And then on slightly more familiar ground for Vayse listeners Bryn talks about what it means to him to be "weird", how fantasy can provide an from reality but can also show a way to see the world more clearly, the power of the genus loci, how music is magic... and why one of his greatest fears is to have "Happy Birthday" sung at him...

Susie read Dolly Parton's biography, and has a conspiracy theory about her idol. We discuss the Kylie Minogue documentary, how she fought against the manic pixie dreamgirl, pop stereotype, and why Michael Hutchence from INXS lit her fire. We get mad about the men in Laos who got trapped in a cave because of the reason they went in there. We learn about the weather app "wet bias," and discuss why the apps were already on thin ice with Sarah. Plus, we hear how men are insecure about the size of their members, and why porn is part of the problem.00:00 - Dog Sitting, Birthday Gifts, and Personal Updates04:22 - Sarah's Surprise Date Night at the Science Museum08:43 - Dolly Parton's Biography and Lesbian Conspiracy Theory19:00 - A Sister's Insight on the Controversial Crash Documentary22:53 - Kylie Minogue: From Pop Princess to Gay Icon40:07 - The Laos Cave Incident and Dangers of Extreme Sports44:58 - Uncovering the 'Wet Bias' in Weather Forecasting Apps55:40 - Men's Body Image Insecurity and Porn's InfluenceBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get 60% off your cat's first order, plus free shipping and free treats for life, when you go to https://www.smalls.com/braincandyThis episode is sponsored by Betterhelp.

Susie has another pretend enemy (pretenemy?), and despite the Hippocratic oath, she is claiming her doctor doing harm. Sarah wants to know what old ladies are supposed to wear these days because her cowboy chic situation isn't exactly couture, but she likes being comfy. We learn about a man who is suing Netflix for creating a movie that he claims is too similar to his life, even though they say any similarity is, you guessed it, purely coincidental. We discuss the Titan submersible and how the wife/mother of two of the victims claims she was given their "bodies" in a very disturbing form. We celebrate the ways Mariska Hargitay is making a difference for victims of assault. And we debate the virtues of living a "random" life with the help of an app.00:00 - Susie's Physical and Doctor Dislikes12:18 - Try the Best Bone Broth on the Planet15:02 - Sarah's Struggle with Modern Fashion Trends25:13 - Relax in Cozy Earth Pajamas and Bedding28:22 - The Tragic Story of Maldives Cave Divers36:41 - Diver Sues Netflix Over Life Story Adaptation40:53 - Disturbing Details from Titan Submersible Victim's Wife42:22 - Keep Track of your Finances with Rocket Money44:31 - Clearing Rape Kit Backlogs with Mariska Hargitay48:28 - Why Billionaires Chase More Money and Power54:05 - Debating the 'He's So Random' Life App58:55 - Reflecting on Doctors, Fashion, and RandomnessBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Head to https://cozyearth.com and use my code BRAINCANDY for an exclusive 20% off.

Susie is in a one-sided feud with Amy Poehler, which makes no sense, but is quite funny. Susie thinks Sarah should consider getting into the handyman business. We find out how to get on Jeopardy, why Brain Candy is basically the trashier, podcast version of Jeopardy. Susie watched the new Richard Simmons documentary about his amazing life and mysterious death, and we provide our theories about what went wrong with him at the end of his life. We learn why some men are trying to make their balls humungous, and we want to know what the hell they're thinking. We debate whether Wrigley field is right to sue a local business who they claim is preventing ticket sales. We find out the latest surprising science on colors, and it is blowing our mind.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Go to https://thrivecausemetics.com/BRAINCANDY for an exclusive offer of 20% off your first order!Get $10 off your first month's subscription and free shipping when you visit https://nutrafol.com and enter promo code BRAINCANDYGet 15% off OneSkin with the code BRAINCANDY at https://www.oneskin.co/BRAINCANDY #oneskinpodLet Rocket Money help you reach your financial goals faster.

Susie is moonlighting in the motion capture industry, and even though it's technically top secret. she shares the challenges of tech modeling and why she thinks her and Sarah's ability to follow instructions makes them succeed on the Challenge. Sarah describes an unconventional way some families are deciding what last name their baby gets, and Susie is mad about it (even though she thinks she would crush it). Sarah thinks every celebrity is now into gardening all of the sudden. Everything is coming up roses for Sarah because she is binging gardening content. It's like Green Acres over here. Susie just knows that apparently there's a problem with peat bogs. Sarah is also obsessing about the magic of Temple Grandin, why she was more in tune with the interior lives of animals, and why she thinks she has the same traits. Despite our query last week, we learned people do, in fact, eat pigeons, but we're pretty sure they're gross. Sarah shares some of the latest slang words of young people, and we learn once again that we are, in fact, very old.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get $30 off your first box - PLUS free Croissants for life - when you go to https://wildgrain.com/braincandy to start your subscription today.Get up to 80% OFF with fast and free shipping on everything at https://www.wayfair.com April 25th through the 27thTDM-RESERVATION: 1.

Sarah met a newborn baby, and she is still riding the high. We find out what it costs to get bodycam footage and why the government is so behind the times. Susie wants to know why no one is doing gender reveal parties anymore (not that we're complaining!). We discuss the Martin Short documentary, and think about why he is so positive and stable and how he is a comedic genius without the tortured soul. We hear about The Crash documentary on Netflix, and the story of Mackenzie Shirilla who drove her car into a building, killing her boyfriend and another friend, and whether we think the crash was an accident or intentional. We learn about the "Accutane nosejob" that happens to many people when they take the acne medication, and why Susie is convinced it happened to her.00:00 - Sarah's Joyful Encounter with a Five-Day-Old Baby6:02 - The Shocking Cost of Bodycam Footage and Government Inefficiency12:40 - Finding Support and Healing Through BetterHelp Therapy15:34 - Why Gender Reveal Parties Are Fading Away22:29 - Martin Short's Joyful Approach to Life and Loss33:04 - Analyzing The Crash Documentary: Accident or Intentional Act?47:03 - The Accutane Nose Job Theory and Podcast Wrap-upBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Spring has sprung, but we don't understand why babies are born this time of year. Sarah explains what happens when you pass gas during surgery (and Susie is not happy). We hear why naming cows has an impact on their milk production. Susie says she always tells people in her life to be sweet to her when she's "fussy" and we debate whether she is infantilizing herself or whether it's proof women are tough. We discuss a robot race and hear whether humans are still winning against machines. There was a situation at a carnival that made Sarah feel like the whole fair industry is an AWH (accident waiting to happen). Plus, we get an update on the Hantavirus cruise situation, and it really calls into question whether anyone should be doing a particular hobby.00:00 - Why Are All the Baby Animals Born in Spring?02:27 - Sarah's Dumb Moment: Where Does Goat Milk Really Come From?06:51 - Life on the Farm: A Traumatic Zombie Deer Encounter10:23 - Underwear as PPE: The Truth About Farts in the Operating Room18:09 - Research Shows Naming Cows Increases Milk Production by 500 Pints21:17 - Is Being 'Fussy' Infantilizing or Proof of Women's Strength?28:42 - Find Authentic Connections with the HILY Dating App31:46 - Are Robot Races Training for a Dystopian Terminator Future?37:04 - The Terrifying Truth About Carnival Ride Safety and Controlled Danger 44:48 - The Emotional Toll of Gambling and Unmet Expectations51:01 - Birders at a Garbage Dump: The Origin of the Hantavirus Cruise OutbreakBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:For up to 65% off your order, head to https://veracityhealth.co and use code BRAINCANDYDownload HILY Dating App from the App Store or Google Play, or visit https://hily.go.link/4iJ1lLet Rocket Money help you reach your financial goals faster.

THE MOTHER TRUCKING GIVEAWAY, GOOD LUCK.

VYS0061 | Talking About Talking About Talking About UFOs - Show notes The truth is out there... sometimes... maybe... well, Hine and Buckley just aren't sure. UFOs, UAPs, Flying Saucers, Alien Spacecraft, whatever you think they are, you don't know for sure - and if you think you do know for sure, it's a sure sign you don't. What you do know for sure is that you are told a lot of different things about them by a lot of different people: abductees spinning stories of high strangeness, senators pressuring whistle-blowers for information in congress, devoutly religious authors telling tales of angels and demons, folklorists and scholars of comparative religion painting vivid pictures of ancient beings dressed up in the skin of Technicolor sci-fi nightmares... no-one agrees and everyone is out to prove that their interpretation is the right interpretation - but what does any of it actually mean? In this episode Hine and Buckley don't analyse the verisimilitude of the stories or the veracity of the storytellers but instead examine the discourse around the phenomena or more accurately the discourse around the discourse around UFOs. The mechanisms with which people might think about this topic and the reasons that they may think in that way. The conversation around UFOs is big business, a lot of people making a lot of money - but who are these people and what happens to that money? Where did it all start? Was it Peter Levenda that stealthily laid the ground work over the last 50 years to shape the UFO movement as we know it today? Why would people lie about this stuff? Why should you believe some conspiracy theorist warning you of the terrible dangers of the existential crisis that UFOs pose anymore than you should trust some conspiracy theorist warning you of the terrible dangers of vaccines and their link to childhood autism?... and if the people who are trying to take control of the discourse are lying, overly-gullible or deluded, then is there really any truth out there at all?

Susie describes why the man who popularized climbing Everest claims he never meant to do that, why he thinks people should climb in a different way, and why it's much easier to scale the highest mountain now than a few years ago. We find out what Sarah thinks is the number one horror film ever made. We discuss twins who don't share a father, and why it raises questions about identity and personhood. We learn the difference between Western runners and the Kenyan and Ethiopian runners who dominate the sport, and the reasons they are defying the "science" of running and still winning marathons and setting world records. We debate the ethics of "unwritten rules" in sports, how these codes are set and enforced, and the ways they're good and bad.00:00 - Personal Reflections on Mother's Day and Sandy Hook's Impact12:40 - How Commercialization Changed Everest Climbing and Its Meaning24:22 - Exploring Addictive Personalities and Toxic Masculinity in Extreme Sports38:11 - The Rare Case of Twins with Different Fathers and Identity's Layers44:27 - African Runners' Communal Approach Defies Western Training Science50:58 - Debating the Ethics and Impact of Unwritten Rules in SportsBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get 40% off your first order PLUS get a free item in every box for life when you go to https://www.hungryroot.com/braincandy and use code braincandyVisit https://www.carawayhome.com/braincandypod to take an additional 10% off using code BRAINCANDYPOD on your next purchase.Head to https://cozyearth.com and use our code BRAINCANDY for an exclusive 20% off.

Sarah and Susie are disturbed by the Hantavirus outbreak on the cruise, and we reminisce about our introduction to the virus thanks to Susie's (unofficial) work on the Gene Hackman investigation. Sarah learned about a collaboration between Prego pasta sauce (??) and Story Corps that will allow you to record family conversations to preserve oral traditions, but we think these people clearly do not know what most family's conversations are actually like. Sarah is working on the Amelia Earhart cold case, and some people now think she landed and made distress calls for days after the plane went missing. She also talks about the Should I Marry a Murderer documentary about a pathologist whose partner confesses to murder, and she faces adversity and mental health issues trying to do the right thing with the information.00:00 - From Pop Songs to WNBA Sports Knowledge06:06 - Floating Toilets & Rodent Poop on Cruises15:43 - Recording Family Dinners with Prego & Story Corps30:18 - Unraveling Amelia Earhart's Fate & Murder Mysteries40:35 - Dresser Drawers, Patriarchy, and Kentucky Derby History49:53 - Should Al Help Us Talk to Animals?

Sarah is embracing her Spanish language learning, but she can only speak it with a deep, Buzz Lightyear voice, and we love it. Susie watched the Dark Wizard HBO docuseries about extreme sporting pioneer, free solo climber, and base-jumping enthusiast, Dean Potter, and we discuss why this is a hate-watch for us, how men will do anything instead of going to therapy, and why Susie hates extreme sports bros with all her heart. We hear about a study that determined that urban birds are more afraid of women than men, and we want to know why. There was a crossword crisis recently, and the puzzle nerds were losing their minds about it. We debate whether there are any MTV Challenge cast members who are better at getting around the rules of the show than we are. And we hear about the boy band documentary that chronicles the experience of the young men who are thrust into pop stardom and sign exploitative contracts, and why it reminds us of reality tv fame.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:For 50% off your order, head to https://www.dailylook.com and use code BRAINCANDY Get 60% off your cat's first order, plus free shipping and free treats for life, when you go to https://www.smalls.com/BRAINCANDYThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Susie watched the Hulk Hogan documentary, and explains why he reminds her of Johnny Bananas, why he is not the hero we hoped for, and the physical pain of being a "fake" wrestler. We learn about a scandal in the equestrian community where a horsegirl was shot by a trainer, and how, despite the odds, we're kind of on the man's side. What. We learn about the men who are upset that they were circumcised when they were babies, and the drastic means they're taking to get their skin to stretch back to its original state. We find out who is the "second most dangerous driver in New York City," and how he got a speeding ticket every other day for a year without any other consequences. Plus, Susie shares the history of the disposable diaper (you're welcome).00:00 - Springing Hope and Backyard Racetrack Dreams09:42 - Unpacking Hulk Hogan's Controversial Character and Legacy24:26 - The Shocking Hawthorne Hill Horse Girl Scandal36:30 - Men's Extreme Journey for Foreskin Restoration 51:14 - Unjust Immunity for NYC's Speeding Officer55:42 - From Cloth to Convenience: The Diaper's Journey01:08:22 - How to Support the Brain Candy Podcast Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get $30 off your first box - PLUS free Croissants for life - when you go to https://wildgrain.com/braincandy to start your subscription today!Get 25% off the Fullest Hair Kit—that's supplements plus their hair serum duo— and free self-care gifts when you visit https://nutrafol.comDownload HILY Dating App from the App Store or Google Play, or visit https://hily.comTDM-RESERVATION: 1.

Sarah is getting excited for her farming future since she's decided to pivot away from snow (since there doesn't appear to be any in Denver anymore). We are comparing notes about the ridiculous pick-up lines we've heard recently, and Susie's theory that men are getting worse at lines designed to flirt. Susie is still trying to get Sarah to come up with her list of non-negotiable things that she requires to feel comfortable (like Susie's list of 5 w's), but we think we've finally got a complete picture. We learn about the "great unwanting," and why some people think Gen Z is not having good sex. We discuss the keys to happiness, and find out the list that scientists have determined are the trick to well-being. Sarah explains what causes a house to be haunted (and it's not ghosts).00:00 - From Airport Signs to Future Farm Living08:56 - Saving Money and Spotting Bad PickUp Lines19:37 - Essential 'P's for Life and Cozy Earth Comforts20:54 - Doom Scrolling, Bad Sex, and Skin Longevity35:36 - Unlocking Happiness: A Scientific Look at Well-Being46:28 - The Science Behind Spooky Vibes and Energetic Echoes55:30 - Why Women Love Shopping (and Men Should Shush)Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get 15% off OneSkin with the code BRAINCANDY at https://www.oneskin.co/BRAINCANDY #oneskinpodLet Rocket Money help you reach your financial goals faster.

We have been threatening to be matchmakers with a listener for years, but we finally think we found the right candidate to set up on dates. Loyal Brainiac, Sarah's iPad, is going to be the perfect gal to set up. She's smart, funny, pretty, and nice, and we need you all to help us find a match. We also talk to Harvard-trained clinical psychologist and Hily Dating App expert, Dr. Sabrina Romanoff about dating in the digital era, the advantages and challenges of online dating, and how to find a good partner. Plus, we look at the data from the Hily Dating App T.R.U.T.H Report to learn what young people look for in a partner, how spirituality helps them make sense of rejection and compatibility, and why young daters are looking for authenticity over perfection in their dates.00:00 - Recovering from Plant Casualties and Embracing Spring08:20 - Setting Up Sarah's iPad with Dating Criteria12:00 - Debating the Importance of Height in Dating15:55 - The Art of Partners Taking Good Photos19:23 - Why Men Love Candid Photos of Their Partners22:58 - Passport Photos and the Craving for Realness25:25 - Dr. Sabrina Romanoff on Hily Truth Report28:17 - The Paradox of Choice and Dating Exhaustion31:08 - Debunking the 'High Value' Dating Myth33:19 - The Emptiness of Relationships Based on Optics36:29 - Craving Authenticity in the Digital Age38:49 - Using Astrology to Navigate Dating Rejection42:44 - Understanding Rejection as Incompatibility, Not Failure46:10 - Sarah's Journey to Self-Focus and Attraction49:20 - Men vs. Women: Quantity vs. Quality in Dating52:00 - The Impact of Inappropriate Compliments in Dating57:39 - Teaching Others How You Want to Be Treated01:00:19 - Why Women Are Obsessed with Tall Men01:05:50 - Infatuation vs. Finding the Right Partner01:09:09 - The Shift to Online Dating and Al's Role01:12:30 - Sarah's Journey to Authentic Dating Profiles01:16:20 - Concluding Thoughts and Guest InformationBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:If you'd like to try the HILY Dating App, you can Download it from the App Store and or Google Play.Or simply checkout their website here for more details: https://hily.go.link/4iJ1lTDM-RESERVATION: 1.

Sarah is back from living that pura vida in Costa Rica. She had an incredible horse girl experience and now she's back to regular life. Susie is encouraging everyone to come up with a list of non-negotiables like she has with her "five W's." We're still working on Sarah's list, but it probably includes pot. We discuss the #SkyKing documentary about the man who stole a plane for seemingly no good reason, and the ways Susie related to his wild life story. We discuss the Trust Me documentary, which tells the story of a fundamentalist Mormon cult where men were "marrying" young girls, and the amazing way the film itself allowed them to be rescued. And our resident sports story lover (who really doesn't like sports), Susie, breaks down the feud between Geno Aurimma and Dawn Staley in the WNBA finals and the ways that it reflects the changing of the guard between the generations.00:00 - Sarah's Pura Vida Trip and Challenges02:38 - Susie's 5 W's and Sarah's P's List08:08 - Susie's Upcoming Google Modeling Job Experience10:24 - Our Favorite Caraway Products and Lost Knife13:58 - Analyzing the SkyKing Hijack and Motivations26:23 - Flexible Meal Planning with Hungryroot Deliveries28:33 - Exploring the False Prophet Mormon Cult Dynamics39:50 - Amplify Your Look with Thrive Cosmetics43:00 - Geno Aurimma vs. Dawn Staley: Generational Clash55:15 - Exploring Lesbians in Sports and Social Conditioning01:04:51 - Podcast Outro and GoFundMe Support MessageBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get 40% off your first order PLUS get a free item in every box for life when you go to https://www.hungryroot.com/braincandy and use code braincandyGo to https://thrivecausemetics.com/braincandy for an exclusive offer of 20% off your first order!Visit https://www.carawayhome.com/braincandypod to take an additional 10% off your next purchase.TDM-RESERVATION: 1.

We completed the bit of Susie not watching Interstellar, and now we're hearing Sooz Review of the film. Sarah is still emotionally recovering from it. It was emotional! So we're getting existential, philosophical, and galactic! We hear why humans are the only animals with chins, and it turns out it's kinda wacky. We find out why one scientist thinks ADHD is best defined as a hypercuriosity, and Sarah is a real big fan of this spin on it. There is a dog poop problem in New York, and it's causing a divide between people who see their dogs as equal to people vs. people who think they should be treated like animals, not humans.00:00 - Susie's Emotional Interstellar Review and Philosophical Reflections10:41 - Exploring the Evolutionary Mystery of the Unique Human Chin24:24 - Redefining ADHD as a Persistent Pattern of Hypercuriosity38:28 - The Debate: Are Dogs People or Animals?

Sarah got an invite to attend the Enhanced Games (the competitive sports where anything goes in terms of performance enhancement). We find out how a crime was recently solved thanks to the nerdy expertise of a botanist. We hear why the Boston and Southern accents might become obsolete, and we're pretty sad about it. We lament the shallow nature of some online culture, and basically we want to bring back Peruvian bowler hats.00:00 - Reflecting on Our 1000th Episode Party & Interstellar01:59 - How the Linda/Louise Prank Taught Me About Love05:39 - Heartfelt Fan Gifts and Sarah's Lost Phone Adventure10:47 - Scientists Finally Map the Clitoris, 30 Years After Penis17:38 - Sarah Gets an Invitation to the Enhanced Games in Vegas23:27 - Why We Rebrand Simple Pleasures Like Forest Bathing27:38 - The Key to Restorative Sleep: Vivid, Immersive Dreams35:33 - How a Botanist Used Moss to Solve a Criminal Case39:30 - The Disappearing Boston Accent and a Matthew McConaughey Encounter 50:01 - Lamenting Homogenized Culture and Peruvian Bowler Hats54:08 - Can Robot Restaurants Replicate the 'Breath of the Wok'?58:23 - Supporting the Show and Leaving a Five-Star ReviewBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get $10 off your first month's subscription and free shipping when you visit https://nutrafol.com and enter promo code BRAINCANDYHead to https://cozyearth.com and use my code BRAINCANDY for an exclusive 20% off.TDM-RESERVATION: 1.

Aliens, UFOs, and what we know from Scripture.  __________ Join us for our 2026 Rooted Educator Worldview Summit by visiting colsoneducators.org/rooted.

We are loving season two of Jury Duty, Company Retreat, and we talk about how the show does an amazing job at casting their unsuspecting foils. Susie has an update on the anal bead scandal that rocked the chess world, and why it turns out the rumor has an unlikely origin. We celebrate the incredible Artemis II crew, and their incredible mission to space (and also how hot they all are). We discuss the Moriah Wilson documentary about the murder of the gravel cyclist by a jealous woman, and how we never get sick of analyzing the unhinged behavior of sociopaths. Scientists were able to watch a sperm whale birth, and made some shocking revelations about how it happens, why it's similar to humans, and why it was a mystery until now. We find out about a surprising trick to keeping seagulls away from your food that scholars recently discovered.00:00 - Kicking Off the Episode with Golden Girls Dreams04:39 - Unpacking the Genius Casting of Jury Duty's Company Retreat20:50 - Balancing Hormones with Veracity Cortisol Calming Supplement & Celebrating the Hot and Humble Artemis Il Crew27:50 - Analyzing Sociopathic Behavior in the Moriah Wilson Murder34:23 - Shocking Revelations from the First Observed Sperm Whale Birth43:23 - Squarespace: Your All-in-One Platform for Online Presence45:04 - Navigating Relationship Gaps with Disney Adults and Fandoms55:51 - The Surprising Trick to Keeping Seagulls Away from Food01:01:56 - Episode Recap and Effortless Style with Stitch FixBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:For up to 65% off your order, head to https://veracityhealth.co and use code BRAINCANDYThis episode is sponsored by Betterhelp.

We did it! 1,000 episodes! Today we celebrate our achievement by talking about a scandal on Mt. Everest where we don't even know who the villain is. We find out what an everyday superpower is and we discuss what ours are. We learn about the woman who created the star categorization system that is still used. We hear why some people are getting exposed for their non-Christian attitudes through their treatment of a statue of Jesus. We discuss a man who flew 16,000 feet in the air using a lawn chair and some balloons. And we debate the virtues of the Irish Goodbye.00:00 - Celebrating 1000 Episodes of Brain Candy Podcast08:19 - Unpacking the Massive Mt.

Sarah won't quit talking about horses, and her love for them, but she explains why it turns out, we're not really meant to ride them. We hear about the quadruple amputee who is accused of committing murder, but wait, there's more, he's also a cornhole champion. He's full of surprises! Susie hooked on bowling ever since she got her own ball, and now she's watching the HBO docuseries, Born to Bowl. We learn about the recent (accidental) discovery that queen bees can live underwater, and we find out how it's possible. There's a restaurant that's causing a literal stink and getting citations for it, so we debate whether it's racist or fair play. We discuss the French trial Gisele Pelicot's husband, who drugged his wife and let men assault her, and the surprising dynamic between her and her daughter that reveals the complexity of trauma. Plus, we find out why dreaming is a complex bodily function, how it helps your memory, and why lucid dreamers might have an advantage.Join Susie and Sarah for The Brain Candy Podcast's 1000th episode celebration: https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/brain-candy-1000th-episode-event00:00 - Celebrating Episode 999 and Sarah's Equine Path02:13 - Unpacking the Truth About Riding Horses06:02 - From Mules to Animal Sanctuaries and Glue Factories09:33 - Wildgrain Bread, Horse Leasing, and Sarah's Intensity20:38 - Susie's Bowling Obsession and the Joy of Play26:39 - Accidental Discovery: Bees Survive Underwater for a Week34:22 - The Stinky Tofu Debate and the Science of Odor43:19 - Gisele Pelicot Trial: Trauma, Betrayal, and Family Rift49:40 - Why Humans Prefer Animal Mating Calls Over Other Sounds55:21 - How Lucid Dreaming Helps Solve Real-Life Problems 58:02 - Wrapping Up Episode 999 and 1000th Episode PreviewBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Head to https://cozyearth.com and use my code BRAINCANDY for an exclusive 20% off.Head to https://www.brodo.com/CANDY for 20% off your first subscription order and use code CANDY for an additional $10 off.

We learn about a lawsuit a Lion King songwriter filed against a comedian for "misrepresenting" his song that made us furious. We delight in the defamation trial of one-hit-wonder and national treasure, Afroman, where he made fools of the police who wrongfully searched his home and destroyed his property. Sarah is watching the Age of Attraction dating reality show, which claims to fight against dating only people of your same age, but we think it just reinforces existing stereotypes. We discuss the dinosaur documentary on Netflix and how it feels like people that believe any crazy conspiracy theory on TikTok are the ones questioning the science of dinosaurs. Sarah says who in her relationship is sportier. Plus, we find out the downside of being a lesbian.Join Susie and Sarah for The Brain Candy Podcast's 1000th episode celebration: https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/brain-candy-1000th-episode-event00:00 - Celebrating 1000 Episodes and Interstellar's Legacy08:44 - Achieve Healthiest Skin with OneSkin's OS1 Peptide10:59 - Comedian Sued Over Lion King Lyrics Translation18:33 - Wins Defamation Case Against Police24:00 - Manage Subscriptions and Save Money with Rocket Money27:05 - Critiquing the 'Age of Attraction' Dating Show36:46 - Non-Toxic, Stylish Cookware from Caraway Home42:39 - Science vs. Conspiracy: Dinosaur Documentaries51:59 - Discussing Sportiness and Lesbian Relationship Dynamics57:46 - Final Thoughts and Podcast Event InvitationBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get 15% off OneSkin with the code BRAINCANDY at https://www.oneskin.co/BRAINCANDY #oneskinpodVisit https://www.carawayhome.com/braincandypod to take an additional 10% off your next purchase.Let Rocket Money help you reach your financial goals faster.
